“Sgt. Rock” has been one of those DC comics that has been on the back burner to get the film treatment for some time now. The franchise is quite rich in potential, but for some reason, no one has been able to get the ball rolling. Producer Joel Silver (the Matrix trilogy and just about every other movie ever) has been the one man that has refused to give up on this comic-to-film adaptation. He has hired writers aplenty to get the story right (Brian Helgeland, John Milius, David Peoples, Jeffrey Boam, Steven De Souza, John Cox, Danny Bilson, and Paul De Meo.) You would think one of those guys would be able to configure a working screen formula, but instead, they all failed at giving the studio what they desired.

While his latest action movie "Max Payne" is still busy dealing with its promotion, Mark Walhlberg has offered a story of his own with the possible casting of "Virulents". Revealing with who he likes to work on the horror thriller, director John Moore told MTV that he wants to have the 37-year-old in it.

[But] we're not in control of these things - lots of big people with big checkbooks get to do that. If it's going to happen, then the karma makes it happen."
